Emma Abbott, the wellknown opera
singer, talked back in meeting at a church
in Nashville, Tenn, last Sunday. She sat
in back seat in the leading Methodist
church of the city and listened to very
severe and bitter sermon from the pastor
ON the theatre. When the minister was
through Miss Abbott got up and replied in
a short speech to his sweeping structures.
She said that his charges were unfounded,
that her own life was as pure as that of
any living woman and that the great lights
Of the stage, such as Jenny Lind, Modjeska,
Albani and countless Others had been good
women, and model wives and mothers.
There was a sensation but the congrega-
ton approved and applauded the spirited
defence which the woman made of her sex
and her profession, and the best that the
minister could do was to cover his confusion
with the declaration that he could not an
swer her because she was lady"

In spite of all the terrible warnings of
the past year, the railroad companies that
are ready to heat their cars in any manner
except by stoves are the exception. Re
peated experiments have abundantly dem
onstrated the fact that steam can be used
successfully for heating long trains Of cars,
and the failure to adopt some system Of
steam heating shows a reckless disregard of
public sentiment and reckless indifference
to the safety of human life. So far as legis
lation is concerned, the Massachusetts, legis
lature enacted a law last June forbidding
the use of common stoves in passenger cars,
the law to take effect at once and law
enacted in New York forbids the use of
stoves after May of next year. Have our
Vermont railroad commissioners made the
recommendations to the railroad companies
on this subject which they promised or sug
gested in their report on the Hartford dis

PHILADELPHIA Press.

| The entrance of women into the bust
ness world has been accomplished by an
almost unnoticed revolution. If there
was a rustic OF their skirts as they came
we. did not notice it. 1t is only now that
these skirts confront US everywhere we
turn that the number of them is forced
on our attention. Here is food for re1ec-
change so gigantic that the world
(of New York at least has put
on an altered face within ten years.
COunting-rOOms wear the airs of parlOrs
and offices possess the atmosphere Of
drawing rooms. The men at the desks
seem nearly always newly barbered and
wear dapped suits such as used to be
called tbest clothes" before II came
about that we were always to be in and
at our best. The men wear smiles when
they speak and deferentisl bend is grow
ing habitual with them, for women are all
around them sharing in their tolls.
"This is the era of If you please in
trade" q friend of mine commented.

mothers, the sex of our lady-Iovers,
is to shatter the main convention Of the
ages, and, deserving the parior
and the kitchen, is to work side by side
with the men, society must feel the change
and feel it strongly. But how? Is
this going to masculInize the women?
Will they be hardened so as to defy the |
shafts of Cupid? Will their ambition for |
witehood and motherhood give way to |
strife for commercial success? Worse |
yet, if this be not the case, are they in |
danger morally? Is female virtue |
jeoparded and modesty endangered from |
this constant intercourse with men? 1t !
appears not-nothing Of the sort and not |
ia the least.

think that manhood is improved and |
polished and made gentle where The daily |

An Unsatisfactory Arrangement.

LONDON, Aug. 8.-The acceptance by the
Porte of Russia's terms for the govern
ment Of Bulgaria, pending the election of q
new Sobranje and later new prince.
widens the breach between Russia and the
people of Bulgaria, and also between the
latter and Prince Ferdinand, while the
arrangement between the Gar and the
Sultan stretches the lines of the treaty of
Berlin to their utmost capacity of tension.
Prince Ferdinand's advent into Bulgaria
was bad enough for all concerned, but the
appearance Of General Erenroth as pro-
visional Governor, appointed by Russia
and Endorsed by the Porte, is still worse
and will be strongly resented by Austria
and Italy.

takers and several women in that state
were carried out of their houses upon
their beds and laid upon the roadside.
Mr.. William O'Brien, NJ. p, was present
and denounced O'Grady e worthless
sot and highway robber. The govern

BEN BUFFERS LATEST.

The Massachusetts, Statesman Airs His
Views in-Relation to the Surplus-Serv-
ice Pensions for Union Veterans and Aid
for Confederate CrippIes.
BOSTON, Sept. 1.-The Butler Club ban
quoted General B. F. Butler last night,
the twenty fifth anniversary of the capt.
ure of Hatteras. A large number of the
Generals friends were present, including
Mayor O'Bren, Hon. George S. Boutwell,
Mr.. VIM. Cogswell, Hon. N. A. Plympton,
General Stephen Thomas, General Cilley,
Department Commander Nash, Corporal
Tanner and many other well-known gen.
tlemen. General Butler, in a speech advo-
eating greenbacklsm, declared that
every theory of finance he had ever held
had eventually been adopted. He blamed
the Democratic party for the accumulate
of the vast surplus in the treasury and the
impairment of the country's business in
terests. The surplus ought to be used in
paying service pensions to Union soldiers,
and after they had ali been provided for
the country should devote the surplus to
the interests of the disabled Confederate
soldiers. They were not to blame for the
war, but only suffered by it. Applause
He advocated this in Congress seventeen
years ago, and had been much abused
for it.
Mayor O'Brien was next introduced, AID
made brief speech.
Corporal Tanner, the next speaker,
heartily indorsed General Buffers scheme
for service pension. He thought Presi-
dent Cleveland made great mistake in
not going to ST. Louis. If few offered
him insult the great mass of the Grand
Army would take these men by the throat
and silence them forever. lGreat ap-
plause.l The Grand Army of the Repub-
lie, he said, will never refuse loyalty to
the man who occupies the seat made inn
mortal by Lincoln.
Hon. Leopold Morse and others also
spoke, and letters were read from General
Sherman, Senator Malone and othe.
prominent men.

Left in Disgust.

CHICAGO, Sept 2.-The Times says two
disguised men left here last night for
Philadelphia. They were Ira Aylesworti,
and A. A. Carlton, who have been here in
vestigating the rows in the knights of
Labor. They have listened to ali sides,
and listened to word wars in which the
choicest epfthets of the Queens English
have been applied by wholesale. The.
committee will sift the evidence and make
it's report in a week or ten days. It is
probable that no cause of action will be
found against the district assembly, as
the charges and counter charges of the
members were generally of a fii,nsy char
acter.

Kelly n Failure as Field CAPTAIN

Boston, Aug. 31.--After the h<se-baN
game here yesterday a conference was
held between Messrs. Soden, Billings and
Conant, and Morrill,, the first baseman.
What was done is not yet known, but it is
thought that on account of the bad play.
ing of the Boston team during the last
week under Kelly as field captain, some
thing must be done or the team would not
be better than seventh in the race wheI
the season was over. On this account it il
said the meeting was called and Morrill,
was made field captain, the position hi
had before Kelly was signed by the direct
ors. It now remains to be seen what tn.
result will be.

The Red River Valley Railroad Situation.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Sept. 2-The
Journals Winnipeg special says: The
slow progress of the legal machinery is
the only feature in the Red River Valley
railroad situation just now. The oppose
ton of the Central Pacific railroad is most
feared by the Ma nitoba Government, and
it's present quiesence is regarded as pre-
Jude to a still more determined fight.
Accidents barred, it is expected that the
new road will be in running order by
October 10. An attempt will be made to
have Van Horne examined when the case
comes up in court.
